The newest GDC data release includes RNA fusion calls made by methods selected as part of the DREAM SMC-RNA challenge (https://t.co/e8Q2YJSwFs)! The best programs benchmarked by this @DR_E_A_M challenge are now being used to help analyze projects like #TARGET from @theNCI
Really interesting article discussing how dogs really do love us as more than just a food source, with a bit of genomics as well—there are mutations associated with "exaggerated gregariousness" in people and dogs

We (with Aviv Regev) want to share with you our preprint scPhere(https://t.co/r7usEWKQY3), a deep generative model embedding of single-cell RNA-Seq profiles on hyperspheres and hyperbolic spaces @humancellatlas
Today is #WorldPancreaticCancerDay. Inspiring young philanthropist Avi Gupta has donated more than $10,000 of his Teen Jeopardy! winnings to the Knight Cancer Institute to help fight this disease. Your gift can impact cancer research: https://t.co/qXmsZ66GtH #InspiredBy
Tonight: Join us at the November #OHSUKnightSchool to learn more about SMMART (Serial Measurements of Molecular and Architectural Responses to Therapy), including what makes this approach unique, how it's working and what's next: https://t.co/VNU8W4KTZH
“I never dreamed that the tumors would be reduced and that there would be nothing new.”
-SMMART patient Beth Shia
Our SMMART clinical trial platform is profiled in this @GreatBigStory video highlighting OHSU’s collaboration with @MicronTech.

“Joe reminds me of the importance of treating each day as a gift and finding joy in everything we do. He looks at problems — even life-threatening problems — as temporary setbacks, never as defeats.”
–Dr. Kevin Billingsley

The carpentries fill an essential role in today's computational science ecosystem by providing lessons in using key software tools and data analyses. Also a great example of providing in-person and online computational training.
“I’m fortunate I’m alive. If my husband had taken a different path, I wouldn’t be here today.” - Jane Gray
The Knight Cancer Institute's Dr. Joe Gray has a personal motivation to ensure that SMMART cancer therapy works: his wife.

Great article about how data science/machine learning is impacting the financial sector. Some of same trends are happening in biomedicine. As always, the key question is—what is the goal or being optimized for? And is that goal/optimization a good thing? https://t.co/bAez8ZPXdv
Open letter from @kellrott, @justin_guinney and co, that looks back at recent DREAM M2D challenges to explore how reproducibility can be improved, including protecting sensitive data in the cloud https://t.co/R2pRlxMwrJ
Ecstatic to report I passed my qual exam this month, and now I'm an official Ph.D. candidate @OHSUCompBio! Many thanks to my professors, exam committee, and mentors, including @AbhiNellore and @thompson_lab!! Hard work gaining this permission to work even harder ;^)
Congrats Geoff & Erik: two abstracts have been selected to be presented at the Frontier of AI-Assisted Care (FAC) Scientific Symposium, Stanford, CA (Sept 18-19): https://t.co/m2irDiSGt3 @OHSUCompBio
